My earliest memory is from when I was a student in London, I remember specifically buying Maybelline Expert Wear Bronzer from a store in Croydon.<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"to-the-world-you-personify-cool-but-what-does-cool-mean-to-you\">To the world, you personify cool. But what does cool mean to you?<\/h3>\n<p>Being cool means being yourself, true to yourself, believing in yourself. Don&#8217;t let others put you down or tell you can&#8217;t achieve your goals and dreams.<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"how-does-maybellines-values-of-work-hard-play-hard-and-make-change-resonates-with-you\">How does Maybelline\u2019s values of work hard, play hard and make change resonates with you?<\/h3>\n<p>These are values that I definitely live by. The global nature of my schedule as a DJ is a rewarding challenge and when I can get time off, I always try to make the most of it whether spending with family, friends and maintaining a healthy lifestyle.<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"how-has-your-relationship-with-self-confidence-evolved\">How has your relationship with self-confidence evolved?<\/h3>\n<p>Self-confidence is absolutely an evolution that we all go through, in our personal lives and in our careers. As an Artist I still get nervous sharing new material and before every show. Loving yourself is the number one self-confidence builder and once you learn to do that you feel invincible.<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"what-are-your-favorite-maybelline-products-and-why\">What are your favorite Maybelline products and why?<\/h3>\n<p>My favorite Maybelline products are the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.maybelline.ca\/en-ca\/all-products\/lip-makeup\/lip-color\/super-stay-matte-ink-liquid-lipstick?variant=Believer\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">SuperStay Matte Ink Liquid Lipstick<\/a>, they really do stay all day!<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"how-do-you-get-inspired-and-stay-inspired-to-create-and-to-break-boundaries\">How do you get inspired and stay inspired to create and to break boundaries?<\/h3>\n<p>Inspiration is wherever you look for it but as a Korean Artist I often look to Korea itself for inspiration, it&#8217;s where I go to recharge my batteries and often where I develop with new concepts and ideas.<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"how-does-your-work-influence-your-approach-to-beauty-and-self-expression\">How does your work influence your approach to beauty and self-expression?<\/h3>\n<p>To express myself I like to dress up and down, both are important in their own way. Travelling a lot can take its toll on the skin so I do have a dedicated beauty routine on tour!<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"post-excerpt\">Electronic Music Superstar Peggy Gou has been named makeup giant, Maybelline New York&#8216;s latest global ambassador.
